NPR isn't a serious news outlet any more. They are the slaves of their underwriters like BP, Monsanto, Kargill and the Kochs.

Not entirely slaves, the struggle continues. I noticed that the story I recently linked to, about 'flipping the script,' a social and certainly political piece, had to be sneaked through as 'medical news.'

For all of you that have been bleating about "plagiarism", just do a Google search today on "dark speech" and look at the results under "News".

https://www.google.com/search?q=dark...w=1600&bih=731

Its amazing how so many diverse journalists at so many different publications us almost exactly the same words, isn't it?
